Today I finished the timing cue sheet for the soundscape. This included going through the piece second by second and writing a description, script and recording information about the whole piece. I have then uploaded the soundscape MP3 track, timing sheet, personal reflective summary and blog URL to blackboard.

Progress
As previously stated, the group met up today to get on with the soundscape. Due to many technical issues (such as not being allowed to book an audio edit suite!) we did not make as much progress as intended! But we have planned to meet again on monday to really get stuck into the task. We made a good start today but a bigger push is needed next time.
Update
Hello bloggers!
After much hard work, today we pitched our idea to our tutor. Sam was responsible for creating the powerpoint presentation, a rough script and the test recordings you can hear at the bottom of this post. Charlie created the main soundscape idea, whilst Curtis created the blog and the storyboard which is also with the test recordings.
The pitch went well and seemed to get a good response. It has been mentioned that it may be difficult to fit idea into two minutes but we believe it is more than possible. Keep following our updates for more information on when you can hear the soundscape! As always, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can find our details here.
Above is a screenshot of the title slide of our powerpoint, below is the story board drawn by Curtis.
Here is one test recording Sam produced as an idea to open the soundscape:

Nightmare of a Lecture!
Good morning bloggers!
We are a group of audio production students at the University of Lincoln and we have been given the task of creating a two minute soundscape from scratch. This means we must record, manipulate and edit completely original sounds that we can find out and about. For this reason, our initial idea is to create a short story on campus, involving a Level 1 student such as ourselves, who falls asleep in a lecture and experiences a vivid, realistic nightmare.
Our first task is to create a presentation which we will pitch to our tutor to gain some feedback. If you have any feedback or comments don’t hesitate to leave us one on here, or find our personal sites by following this link.
